In recent years, health centers have become increasingly interested in and charged with not only addressing the health concerns of their patients, but centering and responding to patient’s social needs. According to Healthy People 2030, social needs, also known as the social determinants of health, are the conditions in the environments where people live, learn, work, and play that affect a wide range of health, functioning, and quality-of-life outcomes and risks. Social needs encompass the quality of and access to resources such as housing, transportation, safety, employment, food, and more. Identifying and addressing unmet social needs as part of the clinical encounter provides the opportunity to deliver higher-quality, whole-person care, advance population health, and reduce healthcare costs.

In early 2018, KLAS researchers issued a report stating that the CommonWell-Carequality connection is the key to interoperability value^1,2. It is believed that when vendors fully embrace CommonWell and Carequality “instant value” will be created for users. This is an appealing promise to all healthcare providers, including health centers. So what should health centers know about this effort, and how should they prepare to capture the benefits?

AMA's Steps Forward Module discussed the adoption and implementation of telemedicine and telehealth, as well as telemedicine's opportunity to support patient and care team coordination and communication through remote patient monitoring.

Over the years, telemedicine has grown quickly as equipment costs have decreased and there is more support from a regulatory and reimbursement perspective. An implementation guide and webinars on related key topics are found within.

oing live on a new Electronic Health Record (EHR), is one of the most critical aspects of the overall implementation.  It HAS to be successful.   The costs and morale issues associated with a go-live gone bad are significant.  The vendor you select for the planning and execution of the go-live is another critical factor.  If you select a vendor with a methodology in place, and an experienced team by your side, your organization can mitigate the stress and disruptions that can occur during go-live.

The Leidos Health Go-Live team has successfully delivered over 480 unique go-live projects consisting of over 9,200 elbow support.   Many of the resources have worked with Leidos Health on more than 20 projects.  As a result of this experience, Leidos Health has learned and developed best practices for implementing an EHR Go-Live event. During this webinar you will hear from an experienced organization with real-world examples and best practices to help you successfully complete a go-live engagement.

Join Mark Dermott, Leidos Health Vice President of Go-Live Services, as he shares 8 key factors to ensure go-live success. You will learn how to:

• Ensure a smooth transition for a Go-Live support team
• Avoid common go-live challenges
• Drive and streamline EHR adoption by clinicians, patients and staff
